A consular district is a sub-national region designated by a consular post to exercise consular functions in a host country.[1] A consular district is serviced by a consul or "consul-general" and is headquartered at a consulate or "consulate-general." It is a common utility for spreading diplomatic representation and services to regions of a host country beyond a guest country's embassy in the capital.
